Excellent recipe as is. I didn't bother with the simple syrup - why make it harder on yourself when regular sugar works perfectly?? I just wanted a quick and easy recipe, and this was exactly that, plus it's delicious! It's just like any mojito I've had in bars, so I'm going to stick with this recipe (with the granulated sugar). One evening, I had Malibu coconut rum in the house, so I used that - serendipity! SOOO yummy.

I had a ham bone left over from Christmas dinner, and started boiling it in a pot of water. I saw this recipe - short list of readily available ingredients and seemed easy to make. So I decided to make potato soup and it turned out wonderfully! I didn't have chicken bouillon so I added the flavoring packet from a package of ramen noodles. No salt needed because the ham was already salted. Very simple and versatile recipe!!

What a creative recipe! This was excellent. My husband and I (and EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD) love creamed spinach, but I always feel so guilty stirring in all that butter and cream!! I was looking for something to make with our leftover spinach and tofu, and this recipe was the golden ticket. I used only olive oil (no butter), fresh spinach, fresh crimini mushrooms, firm tofu, onion, 1% milk, a grated parmesan and mexican cheese mix (b/c I ran out of parmesan), lots of minced garlic (6 cloves), 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper, 1/8 tsp grated nutmeg (b/c I think that's a classic ingredient in traditional creamed spinach). A tip is to drain the spinach mixture before combining with the tofu mixture. There's a lot of water that gets cooked out of mushrooms and spinach, and it could make your creamed spinach too liquidy. This is a fantastic recipe. Beautifully creamy and flavorful. Thank you for sharing the recipe!!
